Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe is a documentary film detailing the claims made by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Senior Scientist, Dr. William ‘Bill’ Thompson.

Dr. Thompson led the agency’s 2004 study on Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) vaccine, investigating its alleged link to autism. Dr. Thompson confessed that the CDC had omitted crucial data in their final report, data that revealed a causal relationship between MMR vaccine and autism.

The film is not anti-vaccination, and it makes the following calls to action:

That Congress (USA) subpoena Dr. William Thompson and investigate the CDC fraud.

That Congress repeal the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act and hold manufacturers liable for injury caused by their vaccines.

That the single measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines be made available immediately.

That all vaccines be classified as pharmaceutical drugs and tested accordingly.

There has been, and will continue to be, false claims made about this film, from allegations about the film’s creators, to the content within.

Banned in the US?

Mainstream media have reported the film was banned in the US, but this has definitely not been the case. It was initially going to premiere in April at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City, run by Robert De Niro and others, but organisers had to pull the film due to “pressure” we can only guess at.

De Niro was very adamant everyone should see this film, and has strongly supported it ever since – despite this, press have said he withdrew the film because he did not support it. Watch him talking about it in this segment on the Today Show:

The film then debuted on April 1 this year, with only 3 day’s notice, at the Angelika Film Center, also in NYC. Since then it has been playing constantly in theatres across the United States.

A few months after its debut the filmmakers and some support people set up a RV, by painting it black with the VaxXed logo huge across the side, and started to tour all around the US filming people’s stories of vaccine damage and death.
